The Drilling Rig Will Be Destined for the Parque das Conchas Field, Shell Begins to Partner with Brazilian Companies

Shell has finally made a decision and is starting to see the potential of Brazilian companies to support its drilling activities. There was an event this week where Petroserv and Shell signed a lease agreement for the semi-submersible rig Catarina, intended for Parque das Conchas, in the Campos Basin. The campaigns will start later this year and open precedents for more future charters. The President of Shell Brasil, André Araújo, is optimistic; see his statement in the video below:

In fact, Shell already holds half of the operation concession for this field, while its partners, ONGC and QP, have 27% and 23%, respectively. The FPSO Espírito Santo is producing at this well and belongs to SBM Offshore. So far, there are twenty-two interconnected wells in this production unit: Argonauta Field (14), Ostra Field (7), and Abalone Field (1). According to ANP, around 45.8 thousand barrels of oil were produced daily in November 2017 across these three assets.

In fact, since December 2017, CEPEM has been conducting many selection processes for various offshore positions ( see some articles about its hires here), after a while we learned that the Human Resources department of the company was hired by Shell and Ventura, but it had not been disclosed for which units candidates would be allocated. Well, now this announcement explains a lot, doesn’t it? See some photos from a large selection process held there in January:

Remember that Ibama has authorized Shell to drill five wells; towns in the interior of Rio may gain a base from the company. More offshore units and support vessels will be chartered to carry out the activities, and Rio and towns in the interior will have logistical and operational support bases. Who knows, one of these vacancies might be yours, but for that, it is necessary to have at least a technical education. If you want, the school Premium has been authorized by CREA and MEC to resolve this in 45 days. FIND OUT HOW BY CLICKING HERE, THE COMPANY WILL CALL YOU SOON.
